I don't want to believe that the movie was fake. After I watched it I read saying that Billy was even a bigger dick than they showed but they edited it down. Ill read this article when I have time later

I wouldn't call the whole movie bogus, but they certainly left out parts, mainly a whole other contender. But in the end that contender didn't matter all that much because it came down to just Billy and Steve. And the article made a good point, it's an 80 minute movie made for entertainment, it couldnt cover all of the details and they maybe fudged some parts to make it easier to understand.

As for Billy, after reading that article I find him to be an even bigger dick. He is so cocky about everything.

In conclusion: regardless of what the article said, even though Billy beat Steve while the movie was airing, it is still one of my favorite movies.

I've seen this airing on ESPN Classic late at night a couple of times over the course of the week. I don't know if you would consider that receiving any sort of props from the sports world but it definitely caught me by surprise
